Doing Disney as a Diabetic
Diabetes is a real challenge for millions of people, and yet, how do you make it workable at the happiest places on earth? We are joined by David Zanolla who shares with us the challenges that Diabetics face when they are in the Disney Parks. We look at how he and others have taken that issue and made the experience not only workable, but as a place to enjoy. Where to go, what to eat, and how to monitor your energy level as you embrace a big day at the parks? Will cover that and much, much more. Join us at Disney at Play as we find out how to do Disney as a Diabetic.
The questions discussed are shared below. But the podcast carries the narrative and is available on Podbean, iTunes, Spotify, and ListenNotes. Please subscribe to the podcast and to this website so you can be notified of upcoming posts and podcasts!

All of them offer unique offerings only available here at Disney at Work and Play.
